Answer to Spot The Sample 3

I might as well drop the bomb now before I forget. The samples (vocal and instrumental) on “Meiplé” came from Brigitte Bardot’s “Moi Je Joue”: french for Me I Play. You see what they did there? That ain’t the worst of it. Just listen to the source material.

Spot The Sample 3 – Robin Thicke’s “Meiplé” (Me I Play) Feat. Jay-Z

This flick never gets old.

I checked this song out on TSS over the weekend. Then I heard it in the car on Hot 97 yesterday. Then I realized someone upstairs must be sending me signs to do another Spot The Sample post. Either that or it’s just one eerie coincidence after the other.

Now that that’s out of the way, here goes the latest sample challenge. This is probably the easiest one considering I gave a clue on where you can find it. And with that I just made the search that much easier for you. My thoughts on the song? Jay-Z’s face in the pic pretty much sums it up although I do like how the vocal sample was used on the hook. All in all the song isn’t terrible but it’s just not for me I guess. Anyway, get ta huntin’!

So it looked like I finally got the ball rolling around here and then things just went dormant. To tell you the truth I haven’t had much to write about outside of (irregular) posts on TSS and URB. Here’s what I’ve been up to outside of typing away on my laptop for scooby snacks.

The NBA x Newark: Enjoy it While You Can

I decided to see the Nets’ last preseason game against the Knicks at The Rock. The tickets were only ten bucks so I came through with my lil’ homey from Rutgers.

So, do the Nets fit in well with Newark?

I’m Not a Blake Griffin Fan But…

…you’d have to be stupid to try and block that halfheartedly. He doesn’t look like the smartest tool in the shed but he’s a pure athlete that can jump out the gym. Fake hustle never gets rewarded. I should know. I’ve been at it for over a year now.

Because Putting The Nets In Newark Makes Too Much Sense…

I checked out the Nets pre season game against the Celtics last night. The Nets lost a game they should’ve won but that’s not the point. Instead, it seems like their new owner has the game locked up as far as moving the squad to Brooklyn. I can go on about how it’s a dumb move in more ways than one but think about this. Why not just play in Newark?

1 Year Anniversary of Fake Hustle!

It was really a year ago today when i started my little slice of the innanet called FH. I was watchin’ pre season ball on TNT and decided I might as well try the whole blogging thing. Well I’m still at it 365 (and a quarter) days and 237,000+ views  later. So to all two of yall that read this page I really appreciate your support haha. I’d say I’m doing pretty well even though I have an axtra low profile online. Most other blogs similar to mine drop off in a couple of months so this is kind of a watershed moment.

2009 was dope here. Let’s make 2010 even better!
